You guys see this thing? It was unveiled yesterday and...whoa. I didn't know if this was a joke or what but I guess it's a real thing.

Looks like a Delorean kinda? Supposed to start at like 40k and have a 500 mile charge radius.

Saw it today, it makes me wonder if people like Musk have gained so much prestige they are trolling us just to see who will finally call bullshit.

That truck looks horrible.

On one hand it's cool that a gazillionaire can wake up with an idea and just do it...boring machines, flamethrowers, whatever.

On the other hand, I have no idea what he's thinking on this one...

I like the truck. Imagine having a full size, crew cab truck with a 6.5 foot bed that can go 0-60 in 2,4 seconds and have a range of 500 miles. That is awesome. That is what the top level model is supposed to be and do. I can imagine being at a red light and the light turns green and I gun it and some poor slob is still trying to make a left turn on red and i just splatter him. Flippen Awesome.

Turn off the obstacle avoidance and put it in Tiananmen Square mode and drive through Irvine. Awesome.

Swing and a miss.... but I appreciate the effort. Musk should have hired Apple’s design team, they do great work.

I like both the Cyber and the Rivian.

I probably would not spend 70k for either one. The first model year of most vehicles usually has a lot of problems.
I would buy one in the 2nd or third year of production.

Broken window made me wonder. If they did test the windows before the live demo what else did they fail to test.

This morning it is reported on CNBC that Tesla has 200K deposits for the Cybertruck in 2 days.

Of course, a deposit is $100, refundable.

Fart app is it's only feature that matters.

Prefer a loaded Tundra with fart noise when I make a left turn FFS!

But the thirsty will buy.

It's ulgy but I would love to test drive one.

I wonder if it floats? It looks more like a boat.

This why the Tesla Cybertruck windows broke, I think.
